The 22-year-old winger is currently on loan at La Liga club Getafe for the 2023-24 season in Spain. His impressive performance with 10 goals and six assists has garnered attention, marking a personal best in league contributions and sparking interest from various clubs.

Barcelona and Atletico Madrid have expressed interest in retaining Greenwood in Spanish football, while Serie A powerhouse Juventus is strongly linked with making a move in the upcoming transfer window. Juventus reportedly sees an opportunity for a bargain deal, considering Greenwood’s expected departure this summer following initial inquiries.

Despite this, The Times suggests that Manchester United is willing to reintegrate Greenwood into their squad if suitable offers fail to materialize. The club values the one-cap England international at £30 million ($38m) to £40 million ($50m) and also has the option to extend his contract until 2026.

United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe has hinted at the possibility of Greenwood returning, with no definitive decision made regarding his future. However, complying with Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations may necessitate United to approve sales, especially since Erik ten Hag’s team is poised to miss out on Champions League revenues once more.
